HIIT Or High Intensity Interval Training is the best way to strip fat fast!
Starting off. Get on a treadmill, cross trainer or stationary bike and at a high level walk or slow jog for around 3-4 min to warm up the body.
Now pump up the speed to the highest point that you can go, pushing yourself at full intensity for 60 Seconds, then slowly bring it back to a slow jog or fast walk for 90 seconds.
Why??
Running/Cycling/Skipping etc. is performed at such an intense level that your body will spend the rest of the day expending energy to recover from the ass-kicking you gave it. This is referred to as EPOC (excess post-exercise oxygen consumption) which means that you consume a great deal more oxygen recovering from the exercise sprint than you would have if you'd just done a low boring effortless exercise.
With HIIT training you will be burning up to nine times more fat while sitting on the couch later that night than you would have if you'd spent an hour on the treadmill at a moderate pace.

Obviously, I am talking about intense training. There is no messing about when it comes to HIIT. You will need to push yourself out of that comfort zone you have gotten used to and really challenge yourself. If you are willing to do this, however, I can guarantee that you will spend less than half the time you usually do on those machines and get much leaner in the process.
So go on, HIIT IT!!!!!
